It is understood that this includes the Mountbatten Festival ofMusic at the Royal Albert Hall on March 7, which will be Harry'slast engagement as Captain-General of the Royal Marines.

I wonder why he did not wear his uniform as such at hiswedding.(For that matter,when Prince Philip handed overthe job to him,the photo marking the occasion showed themboth,along with the outgoing and incoming Commandant-Generals(the career officers actually functioning as head of the RM)in civilian clothes).

He and Meghan are also expected to attendthe Commonwealth Day service on March 9.---Courtiers believe they do not just signal an ending of theSussexes' links to Britain, but also a 'power shift' towardsMeghan. In a little over a month Harry has lost a terrifyingamount. He has broken with his family, his friends and hisway of life. He will never again wear the military uniform heso treasured.

(But apparently just his army-captain uniform from real servicerather than the field-marshal's uniform he was entitled to wearas Captain-General RM?)

By parting company with his dedicated London secretariat heis now effectively severing his royal connections, too.There will also be speculation about what this means for thecouple's son, Archie, and his education. Will he become thefirst of the Queen's great-grandchildren to be schooled abroad?By allowing a transition period for both sides to adjust and byrefusing to strip the couple of their HRH titles though they willnot use them the Queen was making clear, despite her sadness,that the door was still open.The inescapable conclusion is that, by issuing redundancy noticesto their staff, Harry and Meghan have themselves slammed the doorshut.

Is it clear that letting these people go was theSussex's choice rather than the parent Household's?

Too bad these people are losing their jobs.So much for loyalty to the crown.

Sad indeed.
